2004 freestar rear brakes

Can anyone tell me how to to compress the cylinder on the rear brakes of my freestar? I can't seem to get them to move with a clamp or twisting the cylinder.

I've never done rear brakes on an automatic, but I imagine you want to compress the cylinder to release the pads. Put the vehicle in neutral and chock the front wheels and you should be good to go. Unless there's some new safety measure out there that I haven't encountered yet.
